DIGITAL SIGNAGE FOR IMMERSIVE VIEWS

摘要

Techniques for generating and superimposing digital signage onto an immersive view. In an exemplary embodiment, certain entities are occluded or otherwise unviewable in an immersive view of an environment. For such entities, digital signage may be generated and superimposed in a suitable area of the immersive view, and further indicating, e.g., directions to such entities from a viewing location, as well as other metadata, such as business name, website, etc. To determine whether a nearby entity is displayed in the immersive view, a planar layout storing geometrical data associated with entities in the vicinity may be loaded and processed.

1. An apparatus comprising:
a memory storing an immersive view of an environment, a vantage point from which the immersive view is perceived, and data associated with a preferred entity not displayed in the immersive view from the vantage point; a digital signage generation block configured to generate digital signage comprising the data associated with the preferred entity, the digital signage further comprising an indication that the preferred entity is not displayed in the immersive view; and a superimposition block configured to superimpose the digital signage onto the immersive view to generate an annotated immersive view.
